A Seneca, Six Nations Iroquois, and author of the Akwesasne Notes publication, A Basic Call To Consciousness, John Mohawk is actively involved in the Native American movement in the U.S. and Internationally.
PERSPECTIVE OF MOTHER EARTH, (53:00 min.s) recorded in a public forum Apr. 18, 1990 at Boulder, Colorado. In this speech John Mohawk suggests a transformation in the human socialization process that develops a connection to Nature as an appropriate response to concerns of human survival.
